Sorry for the new thread. 4 year old ticket from a council car park.

Not true, anyone could have been the driver, the claimant has no proof of who was driving the vehicle, just an assumption 

I could have been the driver, or a mechanic, or a policeman or woman, or a representative of the lease company , the claimant can assume what they like but assumptions are definitely not proof, not UNLESS somebody tells them, or the driver owns up ( self incrimination. )

A no comment usually works for career criminals, especially when a lawyer tells them to only use those 2 words

Well, that's pretty good to know. Thanks for this.

@mrflib, anything further to report?

Hey @KeithP , got a letter from "QDR Solicitors" recently. It was delivered 14 days after the postmark!

From what I am reading, this is still one to ignore. I had a couple of letters from ZZPS and a firm at the same trading address using a different font, and threatening the addressee in a slightly different tone.

Hopefully I have not made a mistake ignoring this QDR one, I just didn't want to spam the forum with more of the same parking issues.

This is still addressed to a company name, not to any individual. It's being sent to the registered address of the company - the accountants - so I'm getting these letters quite slowly after delivery. I have asked the accountants to forward these on a little quicker.

There are two giveaways that this is just more useless debt collector attempts to get the low-hanging fruit on the gullible tree to poop their pants and pay up. The first is the opening line that states "We have been instructed by ZZPS...". ZZPS are not a party to any alleged breach of contract between the driver and the PPC. They can instruct the failed legal wannabes at QDR all they want but they cannot instruct them to initiate any litigation against you for this matter.

The second giveaway is the "14 days" they give to make payment. That just tells you that this is more male bovine excrement on their part to try and make the low-hanging fruit hang even lower to make it easier for them to pick it.

Come back if/when you receive a real Letter of Claim which will give you "30 days" to pay up and will have words to the effect of "Letter of Claim" in it.
